Guillebeaux was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead. He was 47.
The victim had a lengthy rap sheet, serving three years in state prison for selling drugs and robbery. He was released in 2017 after serving four years.
We’re told Scott and Swygert were allegedly contracted to kill Guillebeaux.
Remy — born Reminisce Smith — gave birth to Scott in 2000. It’s unknown whether she has a close relationship with her son, as she is rarely seen with him.
In fact, the “Conceited” rapper, 44, was not present for his baby shower in 2019.
In a 2016 episode of “Love and Hip Hop,” Remy had an intimate chat with her son before he walked her down the aisle for her second wedding to rapper Papoose.
“I’m very, very proud of you and I love the bond that we’re creating. I feel like we’re getting back to where we was before I went away for that long, long period of time,” she said, referring to her own six-year prison stint.
Remy told Scott that she thought he would “hate” her for not being there for him during the time she was incarcerated.
The Terror Squad emcee is also mom to daughter Reminisce, 5, whom she welcomed with Papoose in December 2018.
